Across TCGA pan-cancer cohorts, PROM1 RNA differs between tumor and matched normal tissue in 15 of 18 cancer types tested, making tumor–normal expression one of PROM1’s most consistent transcriptional readouts.
The strongest signal is observed in kidney renal clear cell carcinoma (KIRC), where PROM1 RNA is repressed in tumor relative to normal tissue. In most cancer types PROM1 is over-expressed in tumor, although a few such as KIRC and KICH show the opposite, repressed pattern.
KIRC, KICH, and THCA are the cancer types where PROM1 tumor–normal differential expression is most reproducible.
RNA tumor vs normal associations by lineage
Ranked by sampling consensus. Fold-change is the tumor-versus-normal difference in PROM1 RNA (log2); positive values indicate higher expression in tumor. p-values are from the differential-expression test.
